Opening one of my catalogs in V5.3 crashes dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe

I just upgraded some older V4 catalogs to V5. 3 out of 4 catalogs open fine but one them says "dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe has stopped working". I've tried deleting the previews folder and letting it rebuild. Restarted computer. Tried upgrading it again. The previous edits seem to be there and I can continue working in LR. It does look like it won't create previews or play some videos though. What is dynamic link actually used for in LR and should I be trying to fix this?

It seems if I remove every video from the catalog (20k pics) then it doesn't show the crash.

PSE 13 one catalog out of three crashes MAC

I have been struggling with PSE 13 for weeks. I reluctantly upgraded from 10 to 13, it always seems to be a problem. It is again this time.
I have 3 catalogs: One with pictures, one with completed scrapbook pages, and one with Digital elements for scrapbooking.
I converted all 3 successfully, and then the problem started. I was loading new files to the Digital elements catalog, and it crashed. I have tried the following:
     * I erased and reloaded it again from the original backup
     * I erased everything and redid the backup, and then reloaded
     * I tried Opt + Cmd + Shift to delete the settings file
It still crashes immediately upon trying to open the Digital Elements catalog.
Please help!! I have been building this catalog since PSE version 3! It has 46,000 elements, all labeled. I can't lose these labels!
Thanks

Oh, and I also did a repair on the catalog even though the program said the catalog didn't need to be repaired. Still didn't help.

Why can't Lightroom open or create a catalog on a network drive?

I just filled up my external drive and spent over $1300 on a Drobo NAS to find out Lightroom can't open or create a catalog on a network drive? EPIC FAIL!!!!
How do I store over 8 TB of catalogs on my NAS and still be able to access them? Do I need to copy the catalogs and pictures from a local drive to a NAS, then copy them back to my local drive if I ever want to use them?
I can't believe this is the case. There really is no reason you shouldn't be able to store a catalog on a network drive. How do I fix or get around this?

Yes, I really have 8 TB of photography. Its from the past 10 years of dozens of worldwide photography jobs. Granted, not all of it is in Lightroom yet, but much of it is. I used Aperture until Apple abandoned all of its professional software development and have been moving to Lightroom for a while now. Aperture is able to use the NAS as a storage drive, no problem and it uses a database as well, so I really don't see why Lightroom can't do it.
I have an 8 TB Drobo connected by Firewire to my iMac and storing photos on it for Lightroom (and Aperture prior to that) and it works fine. But it's filling up and I wanted some archive storage so I didn't have to have Lightroom catalogs and Aperture libraries on it I really don't use on a regular basis. So I got the Drobo FS800 loaded up with 12 TB of space as a network storage server to make sure everything is safely backed up. I am slowly converting my old Aperture libraries to Lightroom, one at a time as well as using Lightroom for everything I have done for about the last two years.
But it is completely impractical to have to store the pictures and catalog on the NAS Drobo, then have to copy it all over to a local drive if I ever want to find a photograph in on a Lightroom catalog. It will takes hours if not a day to do that, just so I can open it. So I may see if I can store the pictures on the NAS Drobo but keep the catalog on the local Drobo. But I hate the idea of not keeping everything together. It something happens and the shots getting separated from the catalog, I have no idea what will happen or if it will be easy to re-connect the media. I also want to keep a backup of the catalog, but I think the built-in catalog vaults will do that.
But again, Apple's Aperture could keep everything together and has not problem pulling it off a NAS, local drive or anywhere. Really hard to imagine why Adobe can't do the same thing, especially since Aperture is overall so obsolete in every other way to Lightroom by now. Guess I need to try a few things and see if I can make this work. But really not comfortable splitting catalogs up on different drives than the picture files are located.

I can't open my most recent catalog, please help!!

I can't open my most recent catalog but I can open older ones and it's not the lock file as there isn't one.... I get a crash report saying that lightroom encountered an error reading from it's preview cache and needs to quit but will try to fix the error on reopening but no matter how often I try, or even on restarting the PC I can't open the catalog. Can some one please help?! I have a client due in to see her photos

Collapsible Panels - Links to open one, and close others

Hi,
I am new to Dreamweaver and have been creating my site by
learning as I go along. I have already read through all the other
related topics associated with Collapsible Panels on this blog and
have still not found an answer. I have been able to open and close
Collapsible Panels by using links - but unfortunately, I need more
than just opening and closing.
On my site i have approximately 5 pages, all with the same
header and Menu bar. The Information (that i have presented in
numerous Collapsible Panels) does however vary from page to page.
What I need to try and figure out is:
How can I open one collapsible panel and close all others? I
have seen the one example which leads to my next question:
How can I group Panels? Some examples of how to open one and
close all others use this grouping. Is there any other way of
opening one and closing all others without grouping?
Lastly, is it possible to set up a link that can be viewed on
one page which when clicked opens the relevant page and collapsible
panel? i.e. on my About Us page there is a link (using the Menu
bar) for one of my several services on the services drop down menu
(but services is on a different page with the same setup). When a
viewer clicks on the specific service, is it possible to get the
site to open the services page, and open the relevant collapsible
panel (with all other Panels closed)?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated - I have been
searching for days now and cannot seem to find any
answers/directions in laymans terms.
Kind regards,
John

This page has an example that has a link that can open and

http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/collapsiblepanel/collapsible_panel_sample. htm
One way to do this would be to have a single link that would
open one of your panels using the code, but then add to it code
that closes each of the other panels, for example:
<a href="#"
onclick="CollapsiblePanel4.open();CollapsiblePanel5.close();CollapsiblePanel6.close();">O pen
4, close 5 and 6</a>
To make this work, you'll need to look that the panel
constructors at the bottom of your page and make sure to match up
the panel variable names i.e. "var CollapsiblePanel1 =...." the
variable is CollapsiblePanel1.
You could also write a function that gathers together the
various panels you have on the page and then pass to it only the
panel that you want kept open. For now, though, it might be best to
use the above method, given your expertise. And taking that even
further, you could apply the function call unobtrusively. Both the
function call and the unobtrusive part you can work on later to get
this working for now.

This is a little confusing, on one hand you ask about how to
group, but then ask how not to group. There is a concept of a
collapsible panel group:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/collapsiblepanel/CollapsiblePanelGroupSamp le.html
But there is another type of group, that may be more what
you're looking for, and that's an Accordion panel, which is similar
to the collapsible panel group, with the exception that it can only
have one panel open at a time.

Probably the easiest way to do this particular one would be
to make sure that you have all of the panels set to be closed when
the page loads, and then take a look at the code for the last
example on this page:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/utils/URLUtilsSample.html
That example uses a tabbed panel, but the concept is the
same, use a URL parameter to determine what to show. You'll need to
link in the SpryURLUtils file in the Spry download package (look in
the includes folder):
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
Essentially, your link will look similar to:
sample.html?panel=1
Then your code could look something like:
var params = Spry.Utils.getLocationParamsAsObject();
var CollapsiblePanel1 = new
Spry.Widget.CollapsiblePanel("CollapsiblePanel1",
{contentIsOpen:(params.panel==1 )} );
var CollapsiblePanel2 = new
Spry.Widget.CollapsiblePanel("CollapsiblePanel2",
{contentIsOpen:(params.panel==2 )} );
Basically what this is doing is creating an object from the
URL parameters. Then for each of the panels the constructor has
code that determines whether or not to expand the panel when the
page loads. So it checks the value of params.panel to see if it
matches 1 (for the first one), if it does, then that means that
contentIsOpen is set to true, if it is some other number or is not
present at all, then that means that the panel is closed. This
would then be repeated down the line for how ever many panels you
want to operate like that.

If I open a photo in "preview", multiple photos open. I just want to open one, but can't figure out how to do it.

I keep multiple photos in a desktop folder to be quickly accessed by using Preview. But when I try to open ONE photo, it opens multiple photos. Can't figure out how to display just the single one that I select. OS 10.7.2

This is the resume feature of Lion. The last state of the application is saved when quitting (i.e last pictures viewed in Preview, last videos viewed in Quicktime etc).
You can switch it off for Preview by copy and pasting the following in to the terminal application
defaults write com.apple.Preview NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

hedger,
How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

When I open one particular folder to play the games in it the pointer turns into a pinwheel and I cant open the game or close the folder unless I shut down my computer. Never happened before and does not happen with any other folder on the desktop.

why does pointer become a pinwheel when I open one particular folder only and prevent me from opening the apps in it and then keep me from closing the folder unless I shut down the computer completely. I can open all other folders on the desk top without a problem. My game folder never gave me trouble before.

Try this. Open one of your files. The window that contains your picture is named at the top. Command click on the name and you'll see the entire path starting with its name and then moving to the folder, the folder it is contained in, etc all the way to down to the hard drive volume name. This should tell you where to find the folder.

My Preview is open all my pics at time instead of open one by one. It occurs when I try to open any type of JPEG file. That's strange and I'm a new macbook user. I hope somebody can help me out. Thanks

First use JPanel not Panel.
Panel panels[]=new Panel[4];becomes
JPanel panels[]=new JPanel[4];Then refactor your code so that you use arrays correctly:
panels=new Panel();
panels.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));becomes
panels=new JPanel();
panels[i].setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
I did the above changes to your code and it worked fine.

I downloaded a program to be able to open docx diles and now every time I try to open one there are endless new tabs that read "new Tab" scrollomig across the top of the screen. How do I make it stop?

I had an old version of office so I tried to install a free download that will allow me to open docx files. Now when I try to open one and endless stream of tabs that say "New Tab" scrolls across the top of the page. How do I make it stop. I already went and got office 2010 but it is still doing it. It does not do it if I use Internet Exployer for the browser.

Well, I rebuilt the entire workbook... that was a few months ago and so far, the problem hasn't resurfaced. It really wasn't fun to do, but whatever glitch there was in the file, I eliminated it.
I think I should mention that I am using Office v.X, NOT Office 2004. I got a new Intel iMac this week and yesterday when I opened up my files, it opened up the test drive (a JOKE of a program if you ask me) Anyway, some of the very minor issues I had with Office v.X were solved in the 2004 version. (When opening up large multi worksheet files without Excel being already opened, the tabs have white text) Anyway, I am still going to wait for the universal version to come out, but it seems that the newer versions may have fewer glitches (as is to be expected)
At any rate, best of luck to you!

I clicked to open one of my mail folders and when it opened, it immediately deleted all of the items in it! Why and can I get them back???

In my email app, I clicked to open one of my mail folders. When it opened, it immediately deleted all of the emails inside that folder. This happened with all the others too. How can I stop this and is it possible to get that mail back.

Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:

PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

System exec, How I say to open one file and make operation in external program?

Hi,
I got called an external program with the system exec.vi, but i would like the program open the file saved in the other window, i can get the file path, but how Can I put the file path in the external program and the program open the file and I tell (in this case compile), since i open one file code c and only i must to open and say to the program 'compile' and then close external program.
Any help?. Thanks.

Hi Fonsi,
System Exec.vi will allow you to run commands like launching a program easily but it is difficult and many times not possible to execute commands within an application.
A better way maybe to approach this though ActiveX. Please look at the following example that uses ActiveX to communicate with Excel.

If you are not familiar to ActiveX and LabVIEW, please read the document below:

How do I set a preference for opening one of multiple email accounts first?

I have multiple email accounts and prefer to open one of them first when I open the email app. After setup of all my email accounts the app is opening one of the accounts that is not my preference even though I setup my preferred account as the default. I've deleted all accounts and started over thinking that the order of the setup made a difference but it has not helped.
In particular I want an Exchange email account to open first and this account is not sync'ed with iTunes.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you,

The only way that you can do something even close to what you are trying to do is to back out of whatever you are in while using the mail app in order to get back to the main mail window that shows all of your inboxes and all of the different email accounts under the accounts heading. Then you could choose to use the Exchange account first from there.
You would have to do this every single time that you are done with mail and it isn't exactly what you are looking to do and it's hardly worth the time anyway.
